General Discussion Area / Boiler being replaced.
« on: 08 August 2018, 19:54:29 »
Hi all,after some advice(again ;D)So i will start from the beginning,yesterday at 4pm the boiler stopped working no hot water.The flashing lights indicated safety thermostat lock out,followed the reset procedure in the manual but no joy.Phoned the property management company who said the plumber, was to busy to come out that night but would be here at 9 today.Plumber turns up bang on time today and says its fubar and needs to be replaced.Property company phone today to say a new boiler will be installed tomorrow,excellent i think.But the problem is i have not been able to wash or shower today(i have eczema and psoriasis)and need to do this every day.The plumber said the installation will take 2 days :o i can't go that long without washing.Also i assume he will have to turn the gas off,and our cooker has a gas hob so we wont be able to cook anything.Do any of you guys know if i can claim some sort of compensation for this,as it not my problem and is a major inconvenience.Could i ask the landlord or the property company,to reimburse me for say a hotel stay or for eating out.I have never been through anything like this before so i don't know where i stand.My wife thinks we should pay less rent this month,to cover any expenses we incur but i am not sure.Any advice as always gratefully received. :y Dean.

General Discussion Area / A public thank you to oof.
« on: 02 August 2018, 21:03:18 »
Hi all,as i have time on my hands(out of work) i have been looking through some of my posts.It strikes me that i have always asked for help and advice on all manner of things.Be it car related or personal and i have always had great reply's,from kind thoughtful intelligent helpful members.But i have not really contributed very much, to give help and advice to the members who have helped me.This is not a conses decision but i don't know much about cars,and i have ballsed up a lot of thing in my life.So who am i to give advice on life, problems and decisions.But i just wanted to say i do appreciate all help and advice,you good folk of oof give me.And if i can ever help any member out in any way i would willingly do so.Kind Regards to you all Dean. :) :y.

Omega General Help / Little light on battery.
« on: 02 August 2018, 18:33:19 »
Hi all,is the little eye light on the battery accurate(ie green ok,black recharge,white change)The reason i ask is the car has been sitting for a while,and the indicator was white(replace). The voltage was 12.20 but the car started and i went to halfords and had it checked,they said its a good battery.I charged a spare battery(light was black)after a full charge got 12.66 but it was still black,i now have the original battery off the car and i am charging it.So my question is should the light go green again when fully charged,also the voltage on idle is 13.14 coming from the alternator that's not good is it. :-\ :-[ :( .Dean.

Omega General Help / Quick Question.
« on: 29 July 2018, 18:20:02 »
Hi all,would a small coolant leak cause fluctuations in running temp.Car used to run at 92 now runs between 92 and 98,i don't have the funds at the moment to get it sorted.Fan kicks in to cool it down and the coolant loss is tiny,but i need to use the car. :-\ :(. Dean.

General Discussion Area / NI rebate.
« on: 08 May 2018, 18:51:10 »
Hi all,i was talking to a mate today about tax rebates.As i have just had one and the wife is due one soon,he said he thinks you can claim NI back as well.Some thing to do with your pay being under the earnings thresh hold,i have done a bit of digging but can't get a definitive answer.I am going to ring the HMRC but just asking if anyone on here has done this.Dean.

Omega General Help / Help and Advice Plug leads.
« on: 14 April 2018, 10:37:12 »
Hi all,hope your all well.A couple of questions i would like to ask,first can anyone tell me the make or part number.I need for the plug leads on my 1995 3.0l omega,the reason for this is that when i recently visited Serek.I gave him a long list of jobs i wanted doing,he did them all bar the plug leads.As i was only with him for a set time he did not get round to them,because i needed the car to get back to Hartlepool.My second question is there any members within say 50 to 70 miles,of Hartlepool that could fit them for me.Serek said they need doing as the oil in the plug wells has fried them,i am willing to pay/help.If not its a trip back to Sereks place.Thanks Dean :y

General Discussion Area / Big Thanks.
« on: 21 March 2018, 18:16:29 »
To Serek,for all his hard work on my car.I gave him a long list of things i wanted done,he did them and some more.Got the car Mot'd and even changed the heater matrix.(so now i don't have to were my coat in the car) ;D.Well worth the 400 mile round trip for 3 reasons,1 he knows what he is doing so its done right.2 At a great price,and 3 he is a really nice guy.So again mate thanks it was a pleasure to meet you,i will see you soon.Kind Regards Dean. :y

General Discussion Area / deleted passwords
« on: 27 October 2017, 14:51:26 »
Hi all has anyone had this problem.Started the PC yesterday went to log in to email no saved password,checked the bank no saved passwords.It looks like all my saved passwords have gone,my browser is Firefox and my home page is bt.Rang bt the tech guy said he thinks an update to Firefox caused the problem,its the same on my laptop.Strange thing is when i open the bt home page and do a search,in the search box.It goes to the google search box,and if i do a search in there it just wipes it out.And does not show any sites at all,so now i have had to reset all my passwords and bookmark them.This cant be right can it how would an up date,wipe out all my passwords.Dean >:(
